Unit Zero – Patterns Overview
Concepts are introduced in this unit so that they can be discussed and solidified throughout the year. Students should be at a developmental level at the end of this unit, but perhaps will not have attained full mastery of all concepts.
Students should understand . . .
Variables and how we use them
Equivalent expressions
Connection between multiplication and repeated addition
Students should be able to . . .
Write an equation for a linear function
Identify the dependent variable and place it on the vertical axis
Create multiple representations of a simple linear function
Students should be able to identify the rate of change from a pictoral representation, a table, a graph, and a verbal description
Students should be able to identify the zero step from a pictoral representation, a table, a graph, and a verbal description
Diffentiate between discrete and continous functions when given a context and show how this is reflected on the graph
